"Interstellar"!

Listening carefully to Andy's elaboration on the ins and outs, combined with the coincidence of time points, Renly immediately deduced the whole picture of this "Christopher Nolan" project.

"Interstellar", which was officially released in 2014, is a sci-fi work that Christopher spent two years creating after finishing the filming of the "Batman" trilogy. If "Gravity" is about the universe A philosophical reflection on the origin of life in space, then "Interstellar" is about the grandeur of time and the vastness of human emotions in the majestic universe.

The movie tells about the near future, the earth's environment is getting worse and worse, and human beings are almost unable to survive, but at the same time, human beings still haven't given up the plan to find a planet suitable for survival in outer space.

The male protagonist, Cooper, is a retired astronaut, married and had children, and lived a quiet and peaceful life on the farm; then, under the strong persuasion of the professor, he chose to rejoin the astronaut team and go to outer space to explore three potential suitable human beings. living planet.

In the process of traveling through the interstellar galaxy, they felt that one hour was equal to seven years of vicissitudes, and the dislocation power of time completely erupted. When they returned again, the world was completely different: the father was still young, but the child was old. The class relationship defined by human society has reversed, how should they get along?

To put it simply, the stories included under the shell of sci-fi adventures are, in the final analysis, a grand motif about time and emotion, human nature and the universe-

The emotional bond between the male protagonist Cooper and his son and daughter bursts out of the energy in the vast universe, which in turn reflects the majesty and insignificance between life, time and space dimensions, especially when age and appearance are stripped away. After the bondage brought by the fixed order, returning to the purest emotional communication in the depths of the soul also reveals a lingering loneliness.

Humans come alone and leave alone. Is everyone still alone in the end?

The movie does not give the answer, but leaves it to the audience to savor it. Undoubtedly, this is a bold attempt by Christopher Nolan to use the emotional fetters in "Inception" as a branch line, and use it as the main line of "Interstellar" to tell the story, relocating from the dimension and height of science fiction and the universe. It is the most fundamental and essential emotion of human beings.

Is this Christopher's finest work?

Obviously not.

After the film was released, it caused a lot of controversy. Many people began to question the rationality of the theoretical basis of the film, believing that there were many flaws and loopholes in the story in the second half, and then began to attack the entire framework and conception of the film with theoretical knowledge, and even reprimanded the film. The idea of ​​the movie is ridiculous.

But in fact, all the theories of the whole movie - including the theory of the story and the theory of computer special effects, all come from Kip-Thorn's deduction and calculation, in other words, the direction of each story and each A change in the picture, the winner of the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics performed calculations in person, and conducted in-depth discussions with his colleagues, and finally presented the finished product that the audience saw on the big screen.

Of course, scientific discussions are inherently divided and controversial, and Kip Thorne may not be 100% correct, but it is undeniable that the film represents a theoretical branch of the current research results, and it is well-founded. Undoubtedly, all theories can stand scrutiny and test, and those self-righteous doubts and complaints, standing in front of giants, only add laughter.

These controversies aside, the film's reputation has not surpassed that of "The Dark Knight", "Inception" and other works, and even slightly inferior to the later "Dunkirk". The freshness index of tomato is 71%, the average score is 7 points, the popcorn index is 85%, and the cinema score is b+.

But it is worth mentioning that "Interstellar" is still warmly sought after among the ratings of senior imdb fans. The high score of 8.6 makes it successfully ranked in the top 30 of the 250 classic list of movie history, becoming the This is Christopher Nolan's third top 30 directorial work.

It can be seen from the ratings alone that this is not a work with extremely strong box office appeal.

Ultimately, the global box office numbers also bear this out.

The North American box office was 188 million. Compared with Christopher's previous works, "Interstellar" did not even cross the 200 million threshold, which is a disappointing achievement; the global box office was 677,700. 10,000, the excellent performance in overseas markets still demonstrates Christopher's rare appeal at the moment.

However, compared with the production cost of 165 million and the global promotion cost of more than 30 million, the income and expenditure accounts of the film can only be regarded as a small profit, less than 40 million US dollars. , although the tragedy of losing money was avoided, it was far from satisfactory.

But objectively speaking, this is a work that Renly likes very much. It can be ranked fourth or fifth in Christopher's personal directorial works, even more than "Memento" and "Deadly Magic", because Renly believes that this is an exploration and challenge for Christopher on the road to directing.

Before that, Christopher was a master at playing with forms, aside from "Following", "Memento" and "Inception", which are unreliable works with a structure and structure, the fragmented form in the "Batman" trilogy The editing is also impressive. Through the sharpness of the lens and editing, the weakness of the script and the thinness of the characters are weakened to a certain extent, and the visual effects and narrative suspense are enlarged.

The shock itself.

The reason why the only exception, "The Dark Knight", can be regarded as a classic in film history, even after ten years, is still an insurmountable peak of superhero comic adaptation movies, because the three characters of Batman, Joker and Two-faced are in justice. He has made his own choice and decision between him and the evil. "Escape from the light into the dark, but to better protect the light." The charm of this philosophical reflection on the character is unparalleled.

"Interstellar" and "The Dark Knight" have something in common, and Christopher went a step further, making the shots and editing, special effects and pictures all serve emotions, and strive to create a relationship between the grandeur of time and the insignificance of human beings. The feeling of contrast ultimately rests on human beings themselves.

This is an important exploration and attempt for Christopher. On the way of the director's growth, he is getting rid of the shackles of structure and technology, but let the structure and technology serve the plot. After "Interstellar", Christopher shot again. "Dunkirk" has obviously made progress again, moving in the direction of the master step by step.

At the same time, this is also the one that relies the most on actors among all of Christopher's works.

In the last life, "Interstellar" was full of stars, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Michael Caine, Casey Affleck, Matt Damon, etc. Wait, no matter the size of the role, they all happily accepted Christopher's invitation to star in this work.

The male lead is played by Matthew McConaughey.

Matthew, who used to be a famous vase in Hollywood, has always appeared in romantic comedies. Actors, like those iconic actors like Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.

However, after years of ups and downs in Hollywood, almost two years without any invitations for works, Matthew finally resolved the pain and completed the transformation. In 2012, he ushered in a comprehensive transformation of his acting skills. ” and “Magic Mike” and peaked at the “Dallas Buyers Club” in 2013.

If the historical trajectories remain consistent, then at the Oscars in February 2014, Matthew won the Best Actor Award for his "Dallas Buyers Club", which was his only Oscar nomination.

Then, the 2014 TV series "True Detective" once again made people witness his superb performance.

It is no exaggeration to say that 2012 to 2014 was the heyday of Matthew's acting, and during this period, his performances had a powerful force that burst from the inside out, which was really impressive.

After that, he gradually fell into a routine, unable to break through himself or surpass himself; and under the influence of the little golden man's curse, the selection of works also seemed a little confused, until Ren Li was reborn, he was not able to Once again, it's a work worth mentioning.

"Interstellar" is a work released in 2014.

Logically speaking, this should be the peak period of Matthew, and the performance is naturally worth affirming and worth looking forward to; but the actual situation needs to be divided into two.

From a positive point of view, Matthew's performance is still delicate and vivid, especially the helplessness and bitterness in the scenes that are out of reach in the time-space tunnel. Matthew's eyes are vividly displayed. Let people see the demeanor of the actor, which deserves applause; but from a negative point of view, Matthew's performance does not match the tone of the whole movie.

Strictly speaking, Matthew is not a methodist acting, but an expressive acting. His performance is traceable. Words and small movements are his performance methods, such as chewing gum in his mouth, and unconsciously fiddling with small objects. Actions, the flickering of the eyes, especially the articulation when speaking, these details are the focus of the character——

Careful attention to detail through expressive acting.

This way of performing is undoubtedly successful, and there is no problem; the problem lies in the overall style of the movie "Interstellar", which is grand and majestic. Matthew's details are too much, but it seems redundant and cumbersome, destroying But if those "superfluous" actions are stripped away, the emotional rendering of the performance will not be enough to achieve Christopher's original intention.

Matthew was really good, but in Renly's view, it was a failed casting.
